SOCPAC KEEN TO SHARE JOINT DOCTRINE AND TRAINING

摘要

Finally, SOCPAC is well positioned to support innovation injections across the Indo-Pacific, particularly in terms of sub-surface capabilities. Examples include USSOCOM's Shallow Water Combat Submersible (SWCS) platform, also referred to as the Mk11 Swimmer Delivery Vehicle, designed for the clandestine insertion of combat divers to avoid detection by enemy forces. SOCPAC and Naval Special Warfare continue to test initial delivers of the Teledyne Brown Engineering SWCS out of Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam on the island of Oahu. However, due to ITAR restrictions, partner forces across the wider Indo-Pacific (with the exception of five eyes partners including Australia and New Zealand) are unlikely to benefit from any foreign military sale of the technology.
